Granted. You now have no understanding at all about any of the other religions, and of the superstitions humans are prey to, and of cultish phenomena in general. You are therefore zealously {for|against} Christianity, and no amount of reasoning makes it better.

I wish that wishing for a wish (to be corrupted here) did not entail insight into a person's personality, so that those using the internet to compile a portfolio of vulnerabilities would be stymied.

Granted. The next time you try to do something bad, you die before you succeed in your pecadillo.

I wish the sun's path was on the other side of my house.

Granted. It has the refractive index of air. You immediately lose it, but mysterious painful cuts and lacerations appear on people who visit, some of them serious enough to generate lawsuits. The blood stains everything, your house is condemned and declared to be haunted in a futile attempt to prevent people from dying from this mysterious malady.

I wish to be able to remember anything I wanted to remember (or would have wanted to remember had I realized at the time that I'd want to remember it).

Granted. You remember that what you must do next is to corrupt a wish in the most amusingly evil fashion imaginable...as a warning to anybody who would actually make such a wish if they encountered a real wish-granting genie. To not do that lulls people into a false sense of security, and then they end up with real corruption when it counts the most. Unfortunately, you remember this too late, and thousands of people run into real wish-granting genies, without the wisdom they could have acquired here. The results are not pretty.

I wish for a battery compartment that holds ten AA batteries in series, with a type N connector correctly wired to supply approximately 11-15 volts (depending on the condition of the batteries) to devices connected to it.
